Just to liven things up as I'm watching another potential bore-fest at 3am tonight, I'm going to award myself a point every time Aribo uses his right foot. For every three points, I'll allow myself a nice cold beer. I reckon that means I'll drink 1/3 of a beer tonight.
LTL, it's very magnanimous of you to give me (any) credit for this thread, or for the guaranteed victory this evening. I am quite happy to ride to success on your coat tails, and, if it helps, I have broad shoulders, so I will willingly take my share of the blame, if we fail to turn in a sparkling performance, with a startlingly good outcome.
If things are going really badly, mix it up at half time and watch it in a mirror, then obirA will get you suitably drunk.
I've just watched the weather forecast, and The Itchen is near to overflowing. The river, that is, not the stand. Going on from Johnny's matchday threads, interrupted by a fire near the ground, I am confidently predicting that the pitch will be flooded shortly before kick off, so if we get to choose ends, we should start at the deep end, then we'll score several in the shallow end, and come out strongly after half time, probably wearing inflatable armbands. Which raises the obvious question - if the ball hits one of our arm bands, in our area, will Coventry be awarded a penalty? One for Tom, i think.
With the new, improved, Internet access available at St Marys, you could go to the Saints v Coventry game, and watch the Champions' League matches on your phone. In fact, Saints could stream the games on their big screens. It would be entertaining, and might give our strikers some pointers as to how to score goals. Although this would probably mean that they would take things literally, and try to hit the screens. No change there, then.
